2006 Cadillac CTS Seat Cushion Pad Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the front seat cushion pad and cover on 2006 Cadillac CTS?

  A: The replacement of front seat cushion cover and pad requires disabling both driver and passenger SIR systems before repair work starts due to the Inflatable Restraints Passenger Presence System on the bottom seat cushion which needs post-repair preload checks. Placing the seat cushion upside down on a protected surface becomes the subsequent step after removing it from the seat assembly. You should remove the seat cushion cover from its frame by releasing the J channels at the frame. The first step to installation is securing the seat cushion to its frame before putting the seat cushion cover on while maintaining smooth alignment of its surface. Pay attention to hook and loop fasteners to achieve proper seat cushion cover and pad attachment. Repaste the seat cushion assembly before you reinsert the seat cushion cover J channels into the seat cushion frame and fasten the seat cushion back onto the seat assembly. Activation of the SIR system and execution of the passenger presence system preload test requires completion after performing repairs on the passenger seat.
